The girl playing Kim (Eva N.) goes to my school and i have the privilege of knowing her for about 4 yrs and being in class with her...she deserves it :) Pure talent.
OMG you met Eva 😍😍😍😍😍
Could everyone please stop hating that the actors aren't Vietnamese? This is a show, not a documentary. These people are acting and they all look like they will be amazing.
I mean Lea Salonga wasn't Vietnamese either but everyone's okay with that
Don't care didn't ask plus you're white
Georgia Griffiths Agree. Id like to tell them to learn how sing well and act first so they could get casted. Stupid comments from these people. Gawd!
@@themusicalspeakeasy2439 Take it from a Vietnamese person: this is a show, not a documentary. Not many of us speak English fluently enough to be considered for the role of Kim-or the ensemble, for that matter-and those who are are unlikely to have also received vocal training. If you want more *Vietnamese-Americans* to be involved in this production, that's fine, but that wouldn't make the characters any more authentic than they are now (save for the non-speaking role of Tam).
I'm Vietnamese and I think there is no Vietnamese actress play Kim role better than Lea Salonga :)
JON-JON BRIONES! Now there's an Engineer who really looks, acts and sings the part...
He's amazing.
Kim-Filipino
Gigi-Filipino
The Engineer-Filipino
awesome!..
rachelle ann go - filipino
Nice!
eva is american tho.. but yeah she has a filipino blood
Three Filipino talents in the revival of Miss Saigon?! Wow! I am so happy to see you right there Rachelle Ann! So proud of you! You have gone so far! God bless you more and the whole cast as well! This is a must watch musical!
***** I'll buy it and for sure!
3...I have a feeling there are more in the ensemble. Excited for Ms. Saigon, my 2nd favorite musical after Les Mis.
There are more filipinos that were not part of the main cast.
Way to go for 2014 Miss Saigon cast! Congrats to the 3 very important roles filled by Filipinos artists--Eva, Jon-Jon and Rachelle Ann. Splendid! You make the Philippines proud!👏🎼😘🇵🇭
Eva's alternate as Kim is also a filipina ☺️
OMG the woman playing Kim sounds fantastic on this, what a brilliant find. Nice to see them cast an unknown star
Eva has been one of my best friends for years. I cannot wait to see her play Kim. A real "dream come true" moment for her - just as it was for Lea 25 years ago, I'm sure. I always told Eva she would be a star, I just didn't know it would be so soon. Love you Eve. I'm going to miss you so much! Here's to hoping we share the stage again soon ;)
Rachelle Ann Go will rock this Miss Saigon. Can't wait for her on May 2014.
She will go far! She can do anything and her charm is just beyond.
Love her talent, very talented artist!
Eva as Kim, Rachel Ann as Gigi, Jon-jon as Engineer. wowsa!! Cant wait to see them on broadway!! Proud Filipino talents!!
Actually not just 3 filipinos are in the cast. Filipino dominates the miss saigon cast . Woot woot
7 years after -- still here... always proud of rachelle ann go!
Rachelle Ann Go is amzing,,,she is a pop star to musical..
My husband and I went to see this production on Monday night (first night of our honeymoon - eek!) and were completely blown away by it. Everything from the singing to the costumes to the acting to the lighting to the sets was absolutely perfect. I just hope they decide to do a soundtrack for this cast because I want to listen to that show again and again and again. X
There is a live double album that was recorded earlier this year,i saw it on sale in the theatre but i expect that you can find on Amazon.....and much cheaper.
Please have a another US production! This is my favorite musical of all time!
+MaryAnn Kincaid give me your top 20 musicals of all time :-]
+MaryAnn Kincaid I am glad to hear that Miss Saigon will be doing a new production and it will be on Broadway next spring in 2017 that is really great news
+William Fairchild I saw that! Now to get there from Vegas. Woohooo!
+MaryAnn Kincaid Thank you for that comment and I hope you will enjoy the new production of Miss Saigon on Broadway next spring in 2017
I hope Lea's in the audience when they first perform it. It'll be great to see, since she was so iconic for this role.
On Saturday 10th January...2015...I had the pleasure of being at The Prince Edward Theatre In London to see Miss Saigon.Tickets were a xmas present from my wife..because of work commitments we've never been able to make it...and we've waited over 10 years to see this production.What a show....the location....the music....the cast ...all superb...i'd reccommend this to anyone.
Extraordinary editing for a promotional piece. Good work. Looking forward to the US tour.
Thanks Richard.
Congratulations to all the cast especially to the three Filipinos - Eva, Rachelle, and Jon Jon. #misssaigon2014
Lea salonga is best kim ever...
PJ Garcia agree
I have literally been replaying Eva's audition segment in this video over and over since I discovered this video a few weeks ago. She seems like she'll be absolutely fabulous in the role!!
Rachelle Ann Go(Gigi) was part of the concert "Do You Hear The People Sing" in Manila with Lea Salonga and other foreign singers. Rachelle sang "maybe" a new song for the role of Ellen in Miss saigon. So far Rachelle can sing the songs of Kim, Gigi and Ellen. I hope she will be given a chance to portray Kim with her age at 27.She really has a great voice. Bravo! im so excited for her.
Awesome! 3 pinoy talents Mabuhay! Missing Lea's face and voice as Kim. Hope they will invite Lea for Anniversary Concert.
Still..... nothing beats Lea's innocent face and angelic voice ..
kyle raizen yeah.. that innocent face.. spot on!
I adore and love this 3 men: Cameron Mackintosh, Claude-Michel Schonberg, and Alain Boublil since I set eyes on them during their search of Kim (in the Philippines) they found in Lea Salonga whom I greatly admire !!!! I pray tht they live a long, healthy and happy life in this lifetime!!!!
I wish they would put this play on film like they did Phantom of the Opera
Mary Ann Wittkowske Yes, I agree with you T-T
I should have specified they should put the original version on film with the original songs not the revival version.
+Mary Ann Wittkowske I am glad to hear that the 25th anniversary gala filmed performance of Miss Saigon will be released in Cinemas and then on DVD and Blu-ray in the autumn this year that is really great news
William Fairchild GOOOOODDDDD, IS THAT LEGIT?
Congratulations to Rachelle Ann Go!!!!!
Rachell ann go of the Philippines ....best vocal....
Seriously, Eva, I'm so stoked for you! Proud to call her one of my very good friends:)
Lea Salonga will forever be the best Kim. Legendary. 👑
WOW! Amazing talents come together. Proud fan of Rachelle Ann Go! Congratulations and good luck.
amazing cast.
For some people commenting, the creative team for this musical is the best in the world. They know what they are doing. Its not only about the voice. Its the totality of the character or role. And i can see that every artist there fits their role perfectly.
Even with this Grand reproduction of Miss Saigon, just listening and watching these new actors in their auditions, I have to say, NOTHING compares to the Original production. That was and always be the MISS SAUGON. The acting and singing was phenomenal. The were all The Best cast ever. The voices were so original and their roles were so brilliantly and passionately played. You can build new props, bring in modern day music scores; new castings of new actors etc 25 - 100 years later but you will never take that originality and rawness from the original production. You will only have to sit back relax and run those reels and you transported back to Saigon. Heard the original Kim and Chris even after 25 years, singing together they sang in the original production, and you were immediately transported back into Miss Saigon.
I'll always think of Lea whenever I think of Kim. But I'll give this new cast a go if they came to Malaysia or Singapore!
it was in Singapore in 2001 I think
so proud of you, my idol Rachell Ann!
My uncle watched the original London cast. Why wasn't I born that year?
indeed =-= ("girl")
i feel the same way...
What about Thuy....who is playing him, this is a main role too. Jon-Jon's story on itself is inspirational, from theater runner to a pivotal lead role in a huge international theater production is absoutely amazing.
I dont care if Lea Salonga is 42, 62 or 82...for me she'll forever be the only Kim. Miss Saigon will never be the same without Lea...i simply cant move on to other Kims. Kim is Lea & Lea is Kim.
I saw Ma-anne Dionisio, ovitatirac, as Kim. She was outstanding. I adore Lea Salonga to the max but am happy to know the Toronto's MS Kim was great. Don't close your door (and mind as well :)) to seeing other actresses/singers to play Kim, my friend! I remembered going to watch Les Miz thinking Colm Wilkinson was the best Valjean. Was I wrong! I saw two great actors play Valjean soo much better and one of them happened to play beside Lea's Fantine at the Broadhurst Theater... Lea was sooo good! I thought Patti LuPone was the best Fantine. Lea was perfect as Fantine. Just wanted to share that. Take care :P
Lea will always be the best kim in the history of miss saigon.
And wow for the cast. I really hope they'll be able to give justice to their designated roles... esp. Kims.
Congrats Rachelle Ann Go!! Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!!!
YES!! Can't wait to see it! And I am so proud of Alistair Brammer one of my favorite stage actors!
After Lea Salonga, Filipino again? That is AWESOME!
I managed to see this a few days ago in London and I was blown away (after being a fan of the soundtrack for a long time). I can't believe it's going to finish- I hope they do a 25th anniversary live DVD
+Philippa Rose I am glad to hear that the 25th anniversary gala filmed performance of Miss Saigon will be released in Cinemas and then on DVD and Blu-ray in the autumn this year that is really great news
+William Fairchild Yes I heard! A friend went to the closing night and Cameron Mackintosh announced it on stage at the end. It's going to be fab. They're doing a UK tour before it goes to Broadway so definitely going again
+Philippa Rose Thank you for that comment and also at the final performance of Miss Saigon, Cameron Mackintosh told us that he hinted about doing the movie and it may happen very soon that is really great news
+Philippa Rose Thank you for that comment and I am looking forward to the 25th anniversary gala filmed performance of Miss Saigon in Cinemas and then on DVD and Blu-ray in the autumn this year
+Philippa Rose Thank you for that comment and I head that Miss Saigon will be doing a new production and it will open on Broadway next spring in 2017 and it will tour the UK next summer in 2017
Congratulations Eva!!! I love the glowing accolades by Claude-Michel Schonberg, Alain Boublil, and THE Cameron Mackintosh! ~ Can hardly wait to hear the reviews! Best wishes!
It's always great to see pinoys perform in big screens and threaters… Mabuhay Kababayans! Let's invade the world with our world-class talents!
Eva’s voice now has improved significantly since her audition reel. WOW.
Lea Salonga is the legend of Miss Saigon she has played it so well that no one can bit her!
I'M SO HAPPY
Goosebumps! What a great cast!
Go SHIN!!!
We are proud of you!!!
I'm still waiting for the sequel, MR. HANOI!!
I was thrilled more to see Rachelle Ann Go as Gigi than Kim....hmmmm......
Amazing show, amazing cast. LOVED IT.
OMG, Rachelle Ann Go!
Excited to see this revival! Will be hard to top Ms Solanga's performance and Mr Price= Perfection♥
WOW!! Congrats to the Cast from the Philippines! especially Ate Rachelle Ann Go! ^_^ hehe
she's a MAJOR, MAJOR recording artist
Im so happy that still the new cast of miss saigon still have filipinos..i am fan of miss saigon i watch it when it held here in manila..
ghost bumps talaga for RAG and for the Philippines.!
God bless u Shin
Goosebumps
Good luck Miss rachelle Ann Go.. #proudfilipino
I guess it only makes sense, i mean the none of the performers for the Les Miserables 25th annivarsary were french..They might as well call this Miss Manila...
good suggestion! let us spread the word to mackintosh for that brilliant idea! Miss Manila! WOW!
Sera Fica coz Filipnos are talented.. and Cameron Mackintosh brilliantly knows that... i don't know whats your problem with filipinos/ or asian artists for that matter?
deliza hermano i totally agree with you! no doubt that lea salonga set the bar very high when she played kim, kaya ang mga producers gusto ang mga Pilipino. yun lang yun! kaya sa mga bashers/sourgrapes na hindi nakukuha ang mga lahi nila sa mga shows kagaya nito, hmmm... ewan ko sa inyo ;p dasal dasal din pag may time, baka sakaling pakinggan ng mga dyos nyo ang hinaing nyo. i just hope that the producers will make a film (like les miz) in celebration of their 25years at si rachelle ang gawing kim para kaboom! ;P
@er doc md :boom na boom tlga... Go Rachelle Ann Go! #Pinoypride
+deliza hermano
I'm pretty sure every country has it's talent...
Also, as a filipino, I think that the other pinoys are way too harsh on other people saying that Miss Saigon has way too many Filipino actors (not that I'm complaining though). Like, it would be nice to see a Vietnamese play Kim..
congrats RACHELLE ANN GO.. im a huge fan!!! ill support u all the way..!
Congrats shin!!!
Rachelle Ann Go, true blue Filipina...aus...
rachelle ann go's voice is spectacular. I wonder if she will be the the KIm role... maybe it will be a spectacular play.
I agree that she has a great voice. But Eva Noblezada would fit better for the role of Kim. I think Rachelle Ann Go is fit for the role of Gigi. I can see her resemblance with Isay Alvarez.
MrBigboss0815
Rachelle Ann Go can give justice for the KIM role, because she has an amazing voice and baby face..but it was the age issue,that's why they gave it to Eva so that it would be more authentic coz she's 17 and wonderful voice,she deserves it...but i am still thankful they give GIGI to Rachelle,knowing she ddnt really audition for the role gigi,means 2 say,she gave a good impression for the panel not to let her go..yeah!
Might have to travel to London so that I can see this epic of a musical….One of my favorites!!
can't wait to see these! All of them will be brilliant, I'm sure Eva will be a great Kim like the great Lea Salonga :) it's a plus that they look so similar when Lea was at her teenage years!
whoa! my very first favorite musical is back in London! wow, it's been 25 years.. how time flies.. :-)
how wonder she is kim miss saigon 2014 what a power and wonderful voice.. i love her
oh i can't wait to watch it. please perform in Manila, Philippines :)
I've watched the German version in Stuttgart in 1998 with Aura Deva on the lead. I hope to watch this in London.
There it goes in my bucket list!
so proud of my fellowmen following the footsteps of ms. Lea salonga. Kudos to all!!!!
GMA stars are born WORLD CLASS!
From Lea Salonga, Regine Velasquez, Julie Anne San Jose and now comes Rachelle Ann Go.
Lea's voice is still superior..but Eva seems so raw .. she can be a really good Kim.. There will be alot of Kims in the future..but only one has been chosen to be the mold of the character of Kim... and that's LEA... big shoes to fill in.. goodluck to EVA! She will definitely be brilliant in it...
Gudluck rachael ann go...amazing ur the 1 gigi miss saigon..yea its true blue Philippina
..hi gogogo
..
....
love you Rachelle!
Excellent choice of cast. Anticipating Miss Saigon 2014!
dragon atac It's not meant to be stereotypical or racist. It's based off of the opera Madame Butterfly. It also originated in London not America so.......
Pardon him....he is yapping without thinking. But I have to point out that Ms. Saigon really is not based on M. Butterfly...2 totally different stories.
love gigi
Oh my gosh I'm so excited about this! I think I must be the only person who is excited about Alistair Brammer, he doesn't have the strongest voice but that's not why he's so good, I saw him in War horse not long ago and he just has this natural depth and believability to his acting. His voice and his acting are both incredibly sympathetic and I think that will bring a whole new side to Chris, I've found that the actors who've played Chris in the past have had really incredible voices but they've been a bit one dimensional, a bit typical even. I actually love when they go for another take on the character. Honestly if they'd wanted a strong voice/ typical good looking guy there are plenty of them on the west end! They've clearly gone for something new and I love it! The only one I'm not sure about is Ellen, she seems a bit old to me? But they've hit the nail on the head with everything else so I won't come to any conclusions about that yet... GAhh I'm just so excited! I hope they do some sort of filming like in War Horse so they can show it around the world. It being the 25th anniversary and all I think they might do something special like that :)
I look forward to seeing it again after all these years.
congrats Rachelle Ann
Gigi is the most beautiful and most talented. She deserves to act the role of Kim. just saying.
She had left Miss Saigon coz she will be playing the role of Fantine in Les Miserables but another Filipina will take over Gigi's character, Natalie Mendoza. I just hope that Rachelle will do great in Les Mis and may she also be able to play Elphalba on the Wicked Musical next year! She deserves bigger roles!
Prince Ichigo Though she's great (Rachelle Ann Go) but she's still not fit to KIM's character, because this role requires an innocent looking lass.
There needs to have a 25th Anniversary Concert of Miss Saigon!!
It's so wonderful to see where Eva really got her big break, she's such a star now!!! Love this show!
After 25 years since the first run, it's landing back in London! Aboard the new and even greater cast, the new MISS SAIGON is...
I am anticipating that Rachelle Ann Go will play Kim, still happy for her ...
I am so so so excited to go see this! Theatre is my life :)
"Now that I've Seen Her"
go go go ..rachelle . . .
what if Miss Saigon turned into a movie?
I would love that!! I'm sure it'd work well.
omg I am SO happy for Eva Noblezada. From School Musicals to this WOW. And how amazingly talented is she?
Is the person playing KIM was a FILIPINA? Great job Ms. Rachel Ann Go!!! ;)
Love for Alistair Brammer :) He was great in Les Miserables...already excited.
I hope that the tour comes to Toronto...I have wanted to see this musical for a long long time.
Please make a movie!!!!
Can't wait to see ms saigon here in london. Me and my wife will defo watch this amazing stage play. So excited to see ms rachelle ann go x
how about 25th anniversary concert of Ms Saigon with the original Kim, Ms Lea salonga? please . please. please
Cannot wait to buy our tickets...but we still miss the original cast of the 1990s Miss Saigon with the emotional voices and performances of Ms Lea Salonga and Jonathan Price.....but glad to know that you have selected 3 Filipinos for major roles.....Bravo
Oh my god, Eva's singing gives me chills!
YES Eva! Congratulations!
